One Thing Life Has Taught Me

One thing life has taught me: if you are interested, you never have to look for new interests. They come to you. When you are genuinely interested in one thing, it will always lead to something else.
Eleanor Roosevelt

I'm interested in life. I'm interested in people. In a few days, I will celebrate my 51st birthday. Yes, I said "celebrate", and yes, I did state my correct age and happily so. I'm happy be on earth as long as God needs me here. Each day of life is a reason to celebrate. I look forward to each new day and the new discoveries I will make before laying down my head on my pillow to sleep. Speaking of which, it's 12:04am and I'm still being productive, sitting here writing to you! As I think of you, I hope you are peacefully sleeping right now and wake refreshed, ready for your own new discoveries that will come with the rising sun. Reminds me of a poem I wrote in 2006 called

My beloved brother, Woody
